Chapter 8: Every step of the way
He rolled over again and fell asleep.
"Oh! Then we'll go back. β
The others had no drama to sing, so they could only leave, but Chen Kang still found that there was a Langzhong surnamed Gao missing among them, so Lian Xiao quietly cleaned up a Langzhong surnamed Gao?
After making sure that everyone else was gone, Lian Xiao sat up from the bed and picked up a banana with a silver needle pierced in the curtain stacked in the tent, there were five bananas in all, one had been trampled on just now, and there were four left.
He took the silver needle away, peeled a banana, stuffed it in his mouth, and ate it.
Well! I heard that it was a banana from the Hainan royal family, and it was indeed better than ordinary bananas.
Half an hour ago, Lian Xiao, who originally wanted to sleep, felt that if he wanted to sleep peacefully, he was afraid that he needed to do something more, so he immediately got up again after lying down for a few seconds.
He looked around in the faint moonlight, fixing his gaze on a plate of bananas in the center of the table.
He pierced the bananas in rows until the five bananas were full, and then placed the bananas at the door of the room and placed them in a circle, which can be called a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree gossip array without dead ends.
Before going to bed, he took out a homemade cloth cover from his Baibao medicine box, then poured some potion from a pot filled with potion and poured it on the cloth cover, and finally put it on his mouth and nose, and then fell asleep peacefully.
He doesn't have the heart of harming people for the time being, but he has 10,000 hearts to prevent people, and as a langzhong, he knows that the poisoning method is invincible, so he takes precautions.
After eating the bananas, the sky was already bright, and even the owl was no longer sleepy, he walked to the window, pushed open the hollow window lattice of mahogany carved pomegranate branches, and all he saw was the plum blossoms in full bloom.
At this moment, it is the cold winter of the wax moon, the heavy snow is continuous, there is no green leaves, the left and independent Hanmei is more and more tenacious and gorgeous, as if there is a breath of air, any wind and rain, the years are wasted, can not stop it from blooming under the severe cold.
Plum blossoms can be seen everywhere in the Celestial Princess's Mansion, oh, by the way, Lian Xiao remembered that the eldest princess is named ...... Ling Hanmei!
There are a few plums in the corner, Ling Han opened it alone, and he knew that it was not snow, so there was a dark fragrance.
Come to think of it, the name of Princess Celestia should be taken from this poem, right?
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"The eldest princess is invited, you need to be neatly dressed, wash clean, and in a quarter of an hour, the eldest princess will feast in the back garden to enjoy the flowers and drink, and talk about the selection of the imperial doctor."
Just after the sixth watch, Gonggong Zhang came to announce the order of the eldest princess.
Regarding the scream last night, everyone tacitly did not mention it again the next day, and the Gao Langzhong, who did not appear in the eyes of the public last night, also appeared in the princess's banquet as if nothing happened, but his cautious walking posture could still see a little lameness.
The cold winter snow, the so-called back garden has no flowers, the unique cold plum stands proudly, although there are many pieces of petals scattered into mud and dust, but still fragrant!
Scent, huh! It's refreshing, Lian Xiao thinks so!
The Langzhong people have all been dressed up, with brocade cotton robes and long jet-black hair flowing flowing, probably studying medicine, so the hair quality of each Langzhong is very good.
The looks that will make the eldest princess uncomfortable and not outstanding are all screened out by Gonggong Zhang, so these people can be said to be like crowns of jade, but the hair decoration that symbolizes status, everyone is a square scarf ribbon representing the identity of the common people.
The eldest princess is dressed in a navy blue brocade inlaid with gold-trimmed cotton dress, and a mandala flower stem sits its way up, extending two beautiful mandala flowers one in front and one in the back.
Everyone knows that the mandala flower is beautiful, but they often forget that this flower is highly poisonous, just like the beauty of the eldest princess, which often makes people forget that she is poisonous and cannot be delusional. Lian Xiao reminded himself like this.
The other Lang Zhong's eyes were almost straight when they looked at the eldest princess.
"Everyone, please take a seat, the eldest princess is in a very good mood today, so she suddenly came to the interest, please come to eat and drink, enjoy the plum blossoms, today you Langzhong can relax the entertainment, you don't have to be restrained."
After listening to Grandpa Zhang's words, several Lang Zhong looked at the moody face of the eldest princess again, and thought to themselves, who eats the bear's heart leopard and dares to relax in front of such a princess?
Lian Xiao just blinked indifferently, the corners of his mouth always maintained a slight arc, and his emotions were not obvious on his face.
It's just that Lian Xiao suddenly found that there was one more person next to the eldest princess, an old man with elegant eyebrows and black beard.
Lian Xiao was alert: Why did he come here? Looks like I'm going to have to be extra careful.
Everyone present knew this old man, who was the current head of the Tai Hospital, and was known as the Supreme Immortal Doctor.
Tai Hospital was originally divided into two factions, the immortal doctor and the holy hand, the immortal doctor was headed by Zunxian, and the holy hand was headed by Pulsatilla, and the two parties were at odds with each other, both wanted to be the boss, but they were evenly matched, although they were intrigued and encircled each other for many years, it was not so easy to tell the winner.
Finally, half a year ago, Zunxian used a trick to cause Pulsatilla to be removed from his official position, and his apprentices and grandchildren were also driven out of the palace, and Pulsatilla took everyone home to concentrate on cultivating the younger generations.
Now, Pulsatilla sent Lian Xiao to fight, ostensibly to let Lian Xiao go to the Tai Hospital for him to be humiliated by the snow back then, but in fact, he had a greater purpose.
The eldest princess turned her head and looked around, then landed on Zunxian, and said lightly, "Isn't the immortal doctor going to have a fellowship with these Langzhong?" You don't have to worry about me, I'm here to eat, enjoy the plum blossoms, and listen today, so you can talk freely. β
Zunxian immediately saluted the eldest princess and said respectfully, "Thank you for the grace of the eldest princess, I am also a person who is thirsty for talent, cherishes talents and loves talents, I heard that our imperial physician selection class is full of talents this year, I can't help but take a look first, if there is a suitable candidate, I can go through the back door of the eldest princess, select some protΓ©gΓ©s to my hospital to be trained, and let them become the pillars of the royal service in the future." β
When he said this, he glanced at Lian Xiao, who was sitting in a black brocade robe in the corner, silently eating tea, which was a very inconspicuous position where he couldn't see people unless he looked carefully.
"There's a doctor Laoxian!" The eldest princess was polite, but her bearing was still cold.
Zunxian hurriedly said, "The eldest princess has tormented the old man, this is the old man's duty, and the old man should work hard." β
Princess Celestia finally smiled politely.
Zunxian turned his head and smiled at everyone and said, "The eldest princess is kind-hearted, allow the old man and me to come to offer ugliness, since everyone is a fellow practitioner, then why don't we exchange some common sense of doctors, everyone is like chatting on weekdays, don't be restrained, timid, let go of the play, in order to achieve the best results." β
After Zunxian finished speaking, he raised his glass and said to everyone with a smile, "I will first toast everyone to show my welcome to everyone, and I hope that our Tai Hospital can select more outstanding descendants every year." β
At the moment when the words fell, Zunxian leaned the wine in his hand and did it first as a respect. The others didn't dare to snub the master of the Tai Hospital, and they all followed with their wine glasses and leaned forward.
It was originally a very harmonious chatter and wine, but suddenly an accident happened.
